Homeward Bound

I saw lightning fly from
Cloud to cloud etching arrows
In the sky. I saw the edge
Of dawn sketching thunder
Silent and black. I saw the moon
Stand guard high above; an act
Of faith. In truth, our descent
Traced its arc, a crescent of
Returning. Let lightning
Follow my flight, I think, let
Each arrow be a burning. Let
The glow of day be born in pain
Each shade a stroke of learning.
Let courage be an act of faith
And rain, the thunder’s yearning.

About me

Mostly I write things I want people to read. Mainly Young Adult Fantasy (a Trilogy is in progress - The Book of Guardians - of which two best selling books are out, and I'm working on the third) and poetry, apart from academic stuff, book reviews, and things I feel strongly about. Being a Conductor, a violinst, and a soprano, and occasional theatre person makes writing easier and more fun.
